The Asheville Art Museum presents exhibitions and public programs based on its Collection of 20th + 21st century art.

The Wells Fargo Art PLAYce is a creative space for everyone to play and learn together. Although designed for our youngest visitors, the Art PLAYce encourages creative wanderings for all ages in a sensory-rich environment. This art-inspired space allows for exploration of colors, shapes, textures, and patterns. Visitors can move and play, sit and enjoy a book, try out a variety of one-of-a-kind interactives created by regional artists, or make art of their own. The Art PLAYce is the perfect place to disconnect from the outside world.
The Museum’s rooftop Perspective Café serves freshly prepared lunch fare created with locally sourced ingredients. A variety of local snacks and beverages are also available, including Poppy’s Popcorn, French Broad Chocolates, Asheville beers, organic coffee, wine, and cocktails. Whether you choose to sit inside the Café or outside on the Sculpture Terrace, you’ll be astonished by the panoramic city skyline and mountain views. Perhaps the most beautiful vista found in Downtown Asheville.
